Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to โexuberanceโ? ๐ฅ
In The Postโs opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, weโre โallergic to exuberance.โ
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps itโs worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
